HART is a 100% volunteer, non-profit animal rescue organization. We accept animals from puppy mills, stray cats and dogs, animal abuse victims, and overflow from shelters, etc. There is never a lack of work, only a lack of volunteers.

There are many volunteer opportunities available at HART. But our #1 Need is always Foster Homes!

Without foster homes our rescue cannot operate.

All of our animals are cared for in foster homes until they are adopted. They are cared for in a loving family environment, in some cases for the very first time, to prepare them for their forever home.

Fostering is a very rewarding opportunity. Many people think that if they foster an animal they will not be able to let it go. That may happen in some instances. However, placing an animal with a loving family benefits the animal and the adopter. It is such a great feeling! You will truly be making a difference, and helping to save a life!
